Why is the page I am testing returning a 301 response instead of a 200 response?
I am writing tests for class-based views in the django project I am writing as part of a course. Currently, I am stuck trying trying to test a view that directs to an edit page that requires a user to be logged in. The item being edited must also have been created by that user in the first place, of course. In the test itself, I instantiate a model and a user, and then log the user in, before trying to get the edit page. I expect the response to have a status code of 200, but it keeps coming back as a 301. Code below: urls.py - path for the edit page: path('edit/<slug:slug>/', views.EditBulletin.as_view(), name='edit'), models.py - the model being instantiated: class Bulletin(models.Model): title = models.CharField(max_length=40, unique=True) slug = models.SlugField(max_length=40, unique=True) author = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='bulletins') content = models.TextField() link = models.URLField() created_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) status = models.IntegerField(choices=STATUS, default=0) likes = models.ManyToManyField(User, related_name='bulletin_likes') edited = models.BooleanField(default=False) updated_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) class Meta: ordering = ['-created_on'] def __str__(self): return self.title def number_of_likes(self): return self.likes.count() views.py - the get method in the view for the edit page: class EditBulletin(View): def get(self, request, slug, *args, **kwargs): queryset = Bulletin.objects.filter(status=1) bulletin = get_object_or_404(queryset, slug=slug, … -
Django field ends up blank after save() AND code that prevents it from reverting to a blank value
A POST request hits one of my django GenericViewSet endpoint that find a matching instance and sets a value on it: obj = models.CarObj.objects.get(id=self.request.data['id']) if self.request.data.get('field_value',False): obj.field = self.request.data['field_value'] obj.save() this works like 95% of the time but occasionally I will catch an obj that has a blank field value after I KNOW that end point was hit correctly. So I changed my code to this: obj = models.CarObj.objects.get(id=self.request.data['id']) if self.request.data.get('field_value',False): obj.field = self.request.data['field_value'] obj.save() obj2 = models.CarObj.objects.get(id=obj.id) print("Mem: {} | DB: {}".format(obj.field, obj2.field)) if obj2.field == '' or len(obj2.field) == 0: raise ValueError("Mem does not match DB") The print always shows the same CORRECT values between the memory instance and the newest fetch from the DB. The ValueError is never raised. Yet sometimes field is still blank. So I went through the ModelViewSet of CarObj and made sure all the POST/ PATCH/ PUT all have: self.request.data.pop('field_value') before their respective serializers are populated with the self.request.data. Yet sometimes field is still blank. I have added a pre_save signal: @receiver(pre_save, sender=models.CarObj) def carobj_pre_save(sender, **kwargs): instance = kwargs.get('instance') if 'field' in instance.get_dirty_fields(check_relationship=True): field_new_value = getattr(instance,'field','') if field_new_value == '' or len(field_new_value) == 0: try: old_instance = models.CarObj.objects.get(id=instance.id) setattr(instance, 'field', getattr(old_instance, 'field', '')) … -
Permission api viewset for pub sub messages in Django
I want to create an action for this viewset that only can be triggered by our Google Cloud Pub Sub. class ObjectViewSet( mixins.CreateModelMixin, mixins.RetrieveModelMixin, mixins.UpdateModelMixin, mixins.DestroyModelMixin, mixins.ListModelMixin, viewsets.GenericViewSet, ): authentication_classes = [TokenAuthentication] permission_classes = [IsAuthenticated] We have a separate endpoint that authorizes a request for only pub sub bearer_token = request.headers.get('Authorization') token = bearer_token.split(' ')[1] claim = id_token.verify_oauth2_token(token, transport.requests.Request(), audience=CLOUDRUN_SERVICE_URL) How can I add this logic to a Permissions class for a PATCH request? -

White spaces being added to text
I'm currently using a django char field in a model to store a url and then in the templates I do this: {% block url %} {% if object.url== '' %} {{ object.old_url}} {% else %} {{ object.url.strip }} {% endif %} {% end block url %} When i check it using inspect in chrome dev tools there are trailing and leading whitespaces for some reason even thought the "url" we enter has no whitespaces starting out? is their anyway to fix this? -
only get newest item of a type from queryset
Two models: class University(models.Model): name = models.CharField("name", max_length = 48) city = models.ForeignKey(City, on_delete = models.CASCADE) class Course(models.Model): name = models.CharField("course name", max_length = 48) university = models.ForeignKey(University, on_delete = models.CASCADE) students = models.ManyToManyField(Student, related_name = "%(class)s_name", related_query_name = "student_course_qs", blank = True) online = models.BooleanField("online course", default = False) semester = models.PositiveIntegerField("choose 1-6", default = 1, choices = [(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4), (5, 5), (6, 6)]) time_update = models.DateTimeField("last info update", auto_now = True) Restriction: If a Course has students, it cannot be online and vice versa. How would I obtain a list of all Courses on all Universities of a given city where the latest entry on Course has students and the Course is held in the 3rd semester? I tried it with a loop over the different groups of University but this results in a massive amount of queries: universities = University.objects.filter(city = City.objects.first()) wanted = [] for univ in universities: c = Course.objects.filter(university = univ).order_by("time_update").last() if c.semester == 3 and not c.online: wanted.append(c.id) selected_courses = Courses.objects.filter(id__in = wanted) The problem I see here is, that I create too many queries and just after the filter for universities they would already be grouped … -
login system issue not redirecting from register page to login page
i am creating a login system when a person create an account i want to redirect them to the login page but the user is still on the register page after they create their account my views.py from django.shortcuts import render, redirect from django.http import HttpResponse from django.forms import inlineformset_factory from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm from django.contrib.auth import authenticate, login, logout from django.contrib import messages from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required from .models import * from .forms import OrderForm, CreateUserForm from .filters import OrderFilter def registerPage(request): if request.user.is_authenticated: return redirect('home') else: form = CreateUserForm() if request.method == 'POST': form = CreateUserForm(request.POST) if form.is_valid(): form.save() user = form.cleaned_data.get('username') messages.success(request, 'Account was created for ' + user) return redirect('login') context = {'form':form} return render(request, 'accounts/register.html', context) def loginPage(request): if request.user.is_authenticated: return redirect('home') else: if request.method == 'POST': username = request.POST.get('username') password =request.POST.get('password') user = authenticate(request, username=username, password=password) if user is not None: login(request, user) return redirect('home') else: messages.info(request, 'Username OR password is incorrect') context = {} return render(request, 'accounts/login.html', context) **my urls.py** path('register/', views.register, name='register'), path('login/', views.login, name='login'),` i tried the redirect but it didn't worked -
How to Reduce Queries while Querying/Filtering GenericRelated Field Object
I have a Like model whose code looks like this: class Like(models.Model): customer = models.ForeignKey(Customer, on_delete=models.CASCADE) liked_on = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) content_type = models.ForeignKey(ContentType, on_delete=models.CASCADE) object_id = models.PositiveIntegerField() content_object = GenericForeignKey() class Meta: unique_together = ('customer', 'content_type', 'object_id') indexes = [ models.Index(fields=["content_type", "object_id"]), ] def __str__(self): return f'{self.customer.user} likes {self.content_object}' This generic relation enables me to reuse the likes model for the CampusAD and PropertyAD models which both have a GenericRelation to the Likes model. In the PropertyADSerializer which feeds the endpoints, /api/properties and /api/properties/{property_id}, I have a SerializerMethodField which provides a boolean telling the front-end which properties have been liked by the current authenticated user (useful for showing a like icon on the page for users). The SerializerMethodField is defined as thus: def get_liked_by_authenticated_user(self, obj): request = self.context.get('request') if request and request.user.is_authenticated: customer = Customer.objects.get(user_id=request.user.id) content_type = ContentType.objects.get_for_model(PropertyAD) likes = Like.objects.filter( customer=customer, content_type=content_type, object_id=obj.id) return likes.exists() return False Now, the issue with this approach is that it makes calls to the Customer and ContentType tables to fetch the required Customer and PropertyAD objects before using them for filtering, and this happens for each PropertyAD on the page resulting in hundreds of calls to the database as shown in the debug toolbar … -
Order Lists in alphabetical order (OrderFilter) with condition that the entries with the values '' were at the end of the list DRF
Good afternoon Please tell me how to sort the data in alphabetical order in ascending order! But with the condition that the entries with the values "" were at the end of the list. Here is the part of the code that conveys the meaning - def order_by_custom_fields(self, ordering: list): result = [] request_status_empty_first = Case( When(request_status__exact='', then=0), default=1 ) for field in ('field'): if field in ordering: result.append(request_status_empty_first) return result def get_ordering(self, request, queryset, view): params = request.query_params.get(self.ordering_param) if params: fields = [param.strip() for param in params.split(',')] ordering = self.remove_invalid_fields(queryset, fields, view, request) else: ordering = [] ordering.extend(self.order_by_custom_fields(ordering)) return tuple( self.filters_custom_ordering(ordering) ) def filter_queryset(self, request, queryset, view): ordering = self.get_ordering(request, queryset, view) if ordering: return queryset.order_by(*ordering) return queryset This option displays records with '' at the very end, but the order is not alphabetical But it's necessary -
"The request's session was deleted before the request completed" on heavier requests
In my Django project I am frequently coming across the error: The request's session was deleted before the request completed. The user may have logged out in a concurrent request, for example. This happens across a number of views and because of a number of different processes within my website. I have noticed that this error occurs on heavier requests for my local server to process, such as loading more images or returning more data from the database when calling the view associated with the current page the user is requesting. This issue does get resolved when configuring the session engine in settings.py: SESSION_ENGINE = "django.contrib.sessions.backends.cache" but this causes the users session to be cleared on server refresh which is a pain during development, so another option would be needed. I primarily use pythons sqlite3 package to execute most queries which could be a possible factor contributing to this error. sqlite3 connection settings connection = sqlite3.connect(r"C:\Users\logan..\....\db.sqlite3", check_same_thread=False) django database settings in settings.py DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', 'NAME': BASE_DIR / 'db.sqlite3', } } perhaps using a different session engine would resolve this issue, or some other configuration in settings.py -
Custom Django JSON field with additional API information
I want to implement a custom json field that would take in the id and put it in json together with other API information. Let's say you receive an id of 2, so you want to put it together in the database like this: { "id": 2, "API": "path-to-api", "additional-info": ... } The additional info, API and other keys added to the json are known at the field declaration time, and they are always the same for the given column. I used Django's get_prep_value to change the value inserted into the DB. I am also using django rest framework ModelSerializer and generics for the views. When I create a new entry, the POST response doesn't have the correct JSON, just the id I sent it. However, if I look into the database, I can see that the value is saved in the correct way and if I list the values using the default generics ListCreateAPIView, I receive the correct JSON. So the question is: Can I do this kind of functionality somehow on the field level? -
Filter queryset based on related object's field value
I have two models: class PartUse(models.Model): ... imported = models.BooleanField() class PartReturn(models.Model): partuse = models.ForeignKey(PartUse) ... imported = models.BooleanField() class PartUseListView(ListView): model = PartUse def get_queryset(self): if self.request.GET.get('show_imported', None): qs = self.model.objects.all() else: qs = self.model.objects.filter(imported=False) // including related return qs I want to filter QuerySet for PartUse to return all PartUse instances that have imported == False for either model. What's the best way to achieve that? -

How to use URL patterns in a HTML file using Django?
I am creating a web application in Django, and I need to link to a webpage that creates a model and then redirects you back. I have already created this webpage, but I need to create a link to it.

In django, how do I pass in context to a view for a specific entry in my database?
I'm quite new to django and python so please bear with me. I'm trying to create a view inside my django project that will display one entry inside my database.
